Hairdressing scissors snipped in the air.
“Are you sure about leaving this to me?” the orphanage director asked.
“Yes,” I replied, nodding as I glanced at my reflection in the large glass window. From over my shoulder, the orphanage director glanced down at me, looking somewhat displeased. “I really want you to cut my hair for me.”

“If I let you cut my hair, it will make the hairdresser happy. He gets paid without having to work since he’s already waiting outside the door. You say I’m being rude to the Black Dragon Master, but the truth is that I’m besties with her. It’s okay if I’m only slightly rude to her. Besides—”
